12. Hero 4

Sakura Mountain is a very magical place in Huaguoshan City, where the cherry blossoms are all over the mountain, they are always undefeated all year round, it is estimated that it will not take a few years, here will also be discovered by the gods, set as a scenic tourist area, take the route of economic effect, and become a tool for the gods to collect money.

There is only a rusty shovel at home, and it is very difficult to dig a pit with bare hands, but Shi Xiaohou did not complain or fear at the moment, but dug carefully bit by bit, while recalling the old man Shi and his life past.

Time is like passing water, and the snowy night brought back by Old Man Shi is like yesterday.

On the hill, Shi Xiaohou finally built the small tomb of Old Man Shi.

Under the pale golden sun, the fragrant cherry blossom forest, the low mounds of earth, and the broken wooden signs became the home of this humble, small but great bad old man.

Shi Xiaohou always didn't understand, what was so good about the old man's pot of old white gan, and after he finished burying the old man Shi, he took out the old white gan that the bad old man had treasured for many years and drank it violently.

The wine is very strong, burning all the way from the throat to the lower abdomen, deep into the stomach, the hot feeling, relieving the negative emotions in the heart, sad little by little numb by alcohol.

Years of love and hate, missed and disappointed, are scattered in this warm morning breeze, and finally pass away with the wind.

Suddenly, Shi Xiaohou thought of the scene where the "God and Buddha" brought him back from Huangquan Road, and also remembered the words of the God and Buddha - one day you want power, take this golden hoop and go to the imperial capital Lingxiao City, where there are very important people waiting for you.

He was a little shaken, if he got the strength, would Old Man Shi also be able to come back from the dead, but what about Chen Zixia's eighteenth birthday gift? What about the future of him and Chen Zixia?

Vomit, no, it seems that Old Man Shi said that in the future, one day, the Heavenly Soldier God from the imperial capital Lingxiao City will take Chen Zixia away.

Thinking of this, he was a little sad again, Chen Zixia was taken away, what should he do if he couldn't be her little tail dog and follow her all the time.

He suddenly discovered that for so many years, the meaning of his life was all because of Chen Zixia, that is, he was just living for Chen Zixia.

He was suddenly a little scared, losing Chen Zixia, he silently prayed to the sky in his heart, if he wanted to lose Chen Zixia, just wait for Chen Zixia to be eighteen years old!

He gave up the opportunity to pursue power, gave up the opportunity to resurrect Old Man Shi, and finally chose to live in secret, fantasizing that the people in the imperial capital Lingxiao City had forgotten Chen Zixia. Then he accompanied Chen Zixia to celebrate her eighteenth birthday and became Chen Zixia's little tail dog for life.

Back in the small courtyard, Chen Zixia was already asleep sitting in Old Man Shi's room. Shi Xiaohou knew that Chen Zixia had been waiting for him all night, so he couldn't bear to disturb Chen Zixia, and every action was very light.

He tiptoed to the side, found a blanket, and put it on Chen Zixia, for fear that she would catch a cold.

When she was sleeping, Chen Zixia was silly, like a sleeping baby, a little more cute and real than usual. Shi Xiaohou was thinking, how could such an ordinary girl who looked like a mortal be an immortal, it must have been Old Man Shi's mistake! Shi Xiaohou really hoped that all the words of Old Man Shi were just to make Shi Xiaohou no longer hate his white lies when he was dying.

The outside of the small courtyard was exceptionally quiet, as if there was no living creature in the entire Shimen Village except for Shi Xiaohou and Chen Zixia, this feeling was very weird, just like the scene when the god and Buddha riding a white horse appeared.

Shi Xiaohou frowned, a little wanting to scold his mother.

Damn, luck won't be so weak, as soon as Old Man Shi died, the heavenly soldiers came to pick up Chen Zixia? Death God, if that's the case, I curse you to marry a wife who is as good as you can and green you for the rest of your life.

Frightened and flustered, he quietly walked out of the room and into the courtyard.

The whole courtyard was enveloped in a golden light, which was incomprehensibly beautiful, warm and intoxicating, like the sun, but not very much like the sun.

That's right, the fairy came, he looked at the sky rendered with gold, and complained in his heart!

Thief, are you going to take everything away from me?

At this moment, "Huh", dozens of figures suddenly appeared in the courtyard, and those people appeared in the air, as if they were out of the air.

They were uniformly dressed, all wearing platinum armor, and their gods were in unison, as if they were different doppelgangers from one person.

"Subordinates greet the young master!" said dozens of heavenly soldiers in unison, their tone respectful, resounding through the heavens and the earth.

Shi Xiaohou looked at them as if he was looking at his mortal enemies, it was these hateful immortals who not only created such a world, but also robbed him of the most important people in his life.

And his anger and hatred, in the eyes of the gods, are nothing more than a joker's comical performance.

How dare man hate God, and what strength do man dare to be angry with God!

Chen Zixia pushed the door out, her face calm, as if everything was expected.

"You already knew?" Shi Xiaohou was a little dumbfounded.

"Well, for so many years, thank you for taking care of me, Shi Xiaohou, but you and I are different paths after all. Chen Zixia's expression was indifferent, and her words and deeds were imposing, but she was really like those immortals.

Shi Xiaohou lowered his head, hunched his back, and curled up: "I just want to be your little tail dog for the rest of your life!"

Chen Zixia smiled indifferently: "But you are not an immortal, people and gods have different paths!"

"Can you, don't go!" Shi Xiaohou's voice was trembling, and the courage of his life was used in this pale and weak sentence.

This kind of begging is humbled to the dust.

"Presumptuous!" the heavenly soldiers were a little displeased, a mortal who was as humble as an ant, what qualifications did he have to keep their young master, this was simply a kind of defilement!

"If you are an immortal, or have the power of an immortal, we can be together, rightly speaking, because immortals are always with immortals, and mortals are always with mortals. Chen Zixia's eyes were a little red, she was an immortal who had lived in the mortal world for many years, and she couldn't be as pure and indifferent to human feelings as other immortals.

Shi Xiaohou seemed to be a drowning person in a boundless desperate situation and suddenly grabbed a ray of hope: "Is it that if I have the power of a god and become an immortal, I can be your little tail dog for the rest of my life?"

His performance was extremely verbal, those heavenly soldiers were more satisfied, even if it was an immortal, it was an honor to be a dog worthy of their young master.

However, what Chen Zixia saw was a boy's beautiful, simple, selfless, and simple longing for love when he was a teenager.

"I'm waiting for you in Lingxiao City, the imperial capital!" Chen Zixia smiled sweetly, and suddenly the heavens and the earth were pale, and everyone present was fascinated.

Shi Xiaohou stood there in a daze, looking at the back of Chen Zixia leaving with the heavenly soldiers, and in his mind, there was only Chen Zixia's last sentence - I am waiting for you in the imperial capital Lingxiao City!

Is it in the muddy nightmare, stealing a living, doing things you don't like, living a life you don't want, like a walking corpse who has lost your soul, or rising up, using all the strength of your life, composing a fate you want, living without compromise, flesh and blood.

In the year when Chen Zixia was taken away, Shi Xiaohou categorically chose the latter, because he wanted to use his life to protect a person, and he would rest until he died, without regrets.

The small courtyard after Chen Zixia and Old Man Shi left was filled with a lonely atmosphere.

Shi Xiaohou sat on the swing, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Perhaps, Old Man Shi already knew that Chen Zixia was leaving today, and the reason why he didn't tell himself was that he was afraid that he would be young and frivolous, and he would be carried away by feelings, so he went to Chen Zixia and asked him to stay, and then quarreled with him, and finally the relationship broke down. Then, Shi Xiaohou's bright future is gone.

Hehe, in the end, you have to be a piece of gold first, and others will give you a splendid future and make you worthless.

Think about it, if Old Man Shi didn't know about the affairs of the immortals, he would be considered far-sighted, and sure enough, in this world, Jiang is still old and spicy.

The sunset sprinkled from among the clouds, decorating the entire courtyard like a dream, Shi Xiaohou just sat on the swing, his head resting on the evergreen trees in the courtyard, thinking about the city, what else did he remember.

From the moment he came to Huaguoshan City, a picture flashed through his mind, and his mind instantly became a movie projector, showing his life and past.

Shi Xiaohou has lived a dull life in the past ten years, and the most memories are just the time with Chen Zixia.

Yes, there is such a person who has a close relationship with him, that is, Bai Jingjing, who he has saved his life.

Shi Xiaohou was a little hesitant, on the one hand, he didn't want to have anything with any girls other than Chen Zixia, on the other hand, from a certain point of view, he and Bai Jingjing were in the same disease, and they could be regarded as friends who met in Pingshui.

In the end, Shi Xiaohou decided to meet Bai Jingjing, acquaintance is fate, this time, I don't know when it will be the return date, I should say goodbye to his only friend in this world!

If all evil deeds are abandoned, Shuilian Street is definitely the most brilliant and beautiful place in the whole Huaguoshan City, with high-rise buildings, bright lights, singing and dancing.

The night breeze is getting cooler and cooler, and the pedestrians on the street are all in groups of three or five, and the least is also in pairs of twos and twos, only Shi Xiaohou is alone, walking alone on the streets of this night market.

The entrance of the Shuimu Festival is particularly lively, the welcome ladies are dressed up in flowers, and most of Bai Zhe's skin is exposed to the air, attracting the attention of passers-by.

In such a fragrant place, Shi Xiaohou came for the first time, and he was unconsciously a little nervous.

"Yo, is the little brother an adult? Why did he come alone?" The welcome ladies looked at Shi Xiaohou, who was standing hesitantly in front of the Shuimu Nianhua Gate, and couldn't help but start teasing him.

They have been dirty by the wind and dust, but they still like, look forward to, and pursue beautiful, simple, simple, and clean things in their bones. And Shi Xiaohou is such a boy, so they can't help but want to tease him.

There are some things, even if you can't get them, you can appreciate them, touch them, and it's enough.

"I'm looking for Bai Jingjing!" Shi Xiaohou said with his hands in his pockets, his neck shrunk, his back hunched, and his expression calm.

He looked a bit like a lonely puppy curled up in the cold wind.

"Are you looking for Jingjing, are you her younger brother? Or is Jingjing's little girl and old cow eating tender grass? There happened to be no guests ordering her to appear today, so I'll call her for you!" The welcome girl on the left smiled and then turned around and ran towards Shuimu Nianhua.

Shi Xiaohou looked at the welcome girl's hips twisting and twisting, and blushed like a monkey's ass. Although he is young, he still knows the meaning of the welcome girl's sentence "The old cow eats the tender grass".

After a while, the welcome girl strode out with Bai Jingjing.

Tonight, Bai Jingjing wore light makeup, a white dress, and a pair of white high heels, standing with those girls with heavy makeup was purely alien and incompatible.

"Thank you for that night!" Bai Jingjing said in a faint mosquito voice as she walked slowly, her face shy.

Originally, it was just a simple thank you, but in the ears of these dusty people, it has become an indescribable association.

"It seems that the little brother was very gentle with Jingjing that night!"

Facing the nonsense of the welcome girls, Bai Jingjing and Shi Xiaohou blushed and lowered their heads together, and the two of them were like an innocent couple.

"Okay, okay, I won't make fun of you, Jingjing, I'll ask the manager for your leave tonight, let's go!" Saying that, without waiting for Bai Jingjing and Shi Xiaohou to refuse, they had already returned to the door of the hall of Shuimu Nianhua to continue to greet them.

After the welcome girl left, Shi Xiaohou lowered his head, a little shy, and didn't dare to look at Bai Jingjing's eyes: "That, I'm sorry for delaying your work time." ”

Bai Jingjing shook her head and said with a sweet smile, "It's okay." ”

"Hmm!" Shi Xiaohou suddenly realized that he didn't know how to talk to girls other than Chen Zixia.

Bai Jingjing looked at Shi Xiaohou's shy and timid appearance, not only did she not dislike it, but ran over and took the initiative to take his hand, and said with a happy smile: "Go, accompany me to go shopping!"

Shi Xiaohou only felt that his cheeks were hot, and after a light "um", he took Bai Jingjing's hand and walked towards the street.

The place where Bai Jingjing wants to take Shi Xiaohou is a snack street. In the past, when the "income" was relatively good, Shi Xiaohou would always bring Chen Zixia here to eat barbecue, and the "brother barbecue" at the west end of the snack street tasted very good and the business was booming.

Next to the "Brothers' Barbecue", there is a "Seafood Chaos", which is delicious, and pedestrians who come here at night to eat a bowl can warm their throats to their hearts.

Bai Jingjing is not very good at spicy food, but she is loyal to the special grilled fish and "roasted eggplant" of "Brother Barbecue".

The barbecue owner is a chubby middle-aged man, dressed in a white kitchen robe, with red cheeks and a very amiable smile.

That night, Bai Jingjing was so happy, she picked vegetables and fish bones for Shi Xiaohou, and then blew the hot chaos to Shi Xiaohou little by little, just like an obedient and lovely little daughter-in-law.

"I left. Shi Xiaohou whispered.

"Where are you going?" Bai Jingjing asked in a low voice.

"Imperial capital, Lingxiao City, the girl I like went there. ”
